Allenyang727

Mardias passed the seven trials, demonstrating superb fighting skills, but the cruel techniques in his final attack reminded Jorgen of his father Dean. This foreshadowed that Mardias' return would bring a power shift, which made Jorgen uneasy. 
Jorgen went to receive Farad for negotiations in the MI7, but was ambushed by the Undertakers. The negotiations were full of variables, so Jorgen needed to be vigilant. 
During the negotiations, Farad claimed to know the whereabouts of Jorgen's best friend Dean, and accused Jorgen of concealing the truth.
Jorgen received a surprise birthday party, and relaxed with his friend Elin. A girl named Elaine claimed to be Elin's daughter when she found him. To handle the situation, they decided to let her stay for one night first.
Elaine stayed at Dalia's house, and Jorgen called a doctor for her. Elaine may be Elin's daughter.
Through interrogating Elaine's guardian Panzi, Jorgen and Elin learned that Farad had abused orphans before. Recalling Elaine's mother's past, Elin decided to take his daughter home.
Dalia grew close to Elaine, and felt sad about her leaving.
The old man rejected Farad's cooperation proposal, leaving Jorgen anxious about the result. He asked Jorgen to nurture Mardias, and revoked Dalia's surname Shawl.
